For once, for twice, I found my knife, And drew across my tragic life To paint it all a vivid, flowing red. But mists will clear, you'll find me here, with wounds and scars too faded to be seen. I've fooled you once, I've fooled you twice, I may have even fooled you thrice, And all the while the pain you saw Was tortured and ungodly raw, I pulled it all from deep within my soul. And as you saw the blood pour out, My thoughts and senses drowned your doubt, And though it all was fake, I felt it still. Too bad, too late, I drew my fate, With tales of knives and ****** damaged flesh. My sore regret is all that's mine, As all the others start to shine, I had your gaze but now it's gone for good.
